Publisher's summary

USA Today best-selling author and Amazon all-star award winner

While foreign forces occupy America, pockets of ordinary citizens gather together to resist.

Can a ragtag group of determined people survive the takeover?

Logan Cahill, Skylar Madigan, and Harper Whitaker are part of a growing underground effort to reclaim occupied America. But when Logan is alerted to a cryptic message in the world’s largest server room, the doomsday clock begins.

Logan knows the enemies, the weapons, and the time of the country's death sentence, right down to the minute. If he and his newfound friends want to survive the apocalypse, they’ll have to bug out fast and head north to the southern Oregon town of Five Falls.

With no power, no heat, and a total grid collapse, tough times keep getting tougher. But when America is struck with an EMP, this small group of survivors will be forced out of the frying pan and into the fire. Only there can they fight for their homes, their families, their community, and their right to be free from the restraints of an oppressive world force.

But will they all survive? Will America survive? Could you survive?

This intense new tale of strength, survival, and patriotism puts ordinary citizens and preppers on the front line of a domestic conflict that was never supposed to happen, one that will either unify the country or break her for good.

*Contains scenes of violence and adult content consistent with a full-scale societal collapse, foreign occupation, and a post-apocalyptic nightmare.

Fast pace and impossible to put down.

I never leave reviews but this was Very well done. I can’t wait to read more books by Ryan Schow

Moments of laughter in the pit of warfare.

The camaraderie that the character developed throughout all books hardened me and gave me a sense of momentary happiness as everyone struggled to survive and overcome the horrors and brutalities of war.

I liked the banter between characters

2nd time listening to the audiobook wish this was a t.v series or movie . enjoyed the ups and downs

Comprehensive and vast story.

Really long, but engaging. I listened all the way through. Well thought out. Fantastical/movie-like on some levels, but very entertaining.

Binge worthy

This boxset was hard to stop listening to. I have had many sleepless nights because the story was so good. If you want to do other things during the day, don't start this series. you will get nothing done lol.

The passion for our country

I want to fight if our country ever becomes invaded and taken over. I just hope I never have to totally lose my humanity like the characters in this book had to do. It is a hard read in places. The language is crude and the violence is raw. It couldn’t give it five complete stars because of that but should give us all as Americans something to think about!

Enjoyable

Makes me think about what if something like this was in the works already. With the extreme MAGA Republicans, they all really seem to be working against the United States and the people. Probably on the payroll of the China

Interesting but a bit dirty for my personal taste

Story was interesting and held my attention. Characters were likable. There was a bit too much sexual content for me personally. I don’t mind a little but I personally don’t need graphic sex scenes to keep me interested in a story. I only make this comment for folks like myself that prefer content that is more PG rated. The ladies in the books were portrayed as promiscuous and free. Just a personal opinion.

Good writting, well narrated, storyline impossible

I give Ryan Schow credit for an imaginative setting for this story, unique from most apocalyptic fiction. And it could, in some future world, be a realistic plot. Ryan Schow's writing style is easy to read, clear, crisp and well composed. Most characters could be realistic, albeit a bit simplistic. But there is no way on God's green earth that these characters could possibly survive 90% of the physical and situational abuse, damage and torture that several of them are subjected to over and over and over again. Not to mention the battles that they fought with 1 against 100's, and still succeed.
Still, the writing is sufficient to carry these supernatural characters through the book as long as the reader sets aside a big chunk of reality. It's also much assisted by Kevin Pierce's wonderful narration.
I read all 5 books. Not sure I will attempt any more of this author's books, though. It requires so much work to stretch my imagination to accept what is happening, that I find myself balking frequently and needing to talk myself into accepting this as reality. I became distracted throughout the entire read.

Pretty good.

Pretty good listen. Especially for the length you receive. Good characters and of course great narration by Kevin!
